Abstract

Based on the binary quadratic programming model of the CDMA maximum likelihood multiuser detection problem, a detection strategy by the second-order cone programming method is presented. The proposed method relaxes the binary quadratic programming model as a second-order cone programming model. Coupled with the sign function, a suboptimal solution is obtained for the multiuser detection problem. Comparing with the reported semidefinite programming method, simulations demonstrate that the second-order cone programming method often yields the similar bit error rate (BER) performances for the multiuser detection problem, but the average CPU time of this method is significantly reduced.
